Naked man arrested after short police chase

MELBOURNE, Fla. (AP) - A 19-year-old man is facing two counts of vehicle burglary, petit larceny and resisting arrest after Melbourne Police officers found him hiding naked in a park following a short foot-chase early Wednesday.

Police responded and arrested 2 of the men, but a third fled and attempted to hide behind the park's racetracks.

The Brevard County Sheriff's Office dispatched a helicopter to help search and used an infrared camera to locate a heat signature coming from behind a nearby canal. Officers responded and found Miguel Camorlinga hiding and naked.

Police said Camorlinga's description matched that of the man who had fled the scene earlier.
